The Monterey Bay Aquarium area can expect a new luxury hotel.

With Cannery Row and the Monterey Bay Aquarium in close proximity, lovers of literature and marine life alike flock to Monterey. In fact, the area draws 4.5 million visitors each year. Domaine Hospitality Partners, LLC plans to capitalize on this by building a new luxury hotel in the area. The project will be built on the American Tin Cannery site, at the end of Cannery Row and across the street from the Monterey Bay Aquarium. Domaine Hospitality is working with Mark Hornberger of architecture firm Hornberger+Worstell on the project, which they're calling Project Bella. The ultimate goal of Project Bella is to have the site become the foremost luxury hotel in the entire nation. The project's 160 rooms and suites will all have ocean views, and the site will also feature meeting and conference rooms to support events from the Monterey Bay Aquarium and Stanford University's Hopkins Marine Station. The new hotel will not just be luxurious; it will also be sustainable. Project Bella will be built to specifications that will allow it to earn LEED Platinum certification. The Monterey Bay Aquarium is pleased with the development and Domaine Hospitality's focus on minimizing its environmental impact, hoping that Project Bella will serve as an example of how humans can continue to develop the coastline without serious detrimental ramifications for the environment and its animals. Domaine Hospitality aims to make Project Bella one of the most iconic hotels in the United States and, with such an iconic location in which to build and support their sustainably-focused development, they just may.
